>Description:
When using ipfilter with certain network interfaces (if_vr and if_bge are known to be affected), UDP packets with zero checksum are dropped (ipmon log entries show "bad"). This causes problems in applications that use such packets, such as the common Cisco VPN.
The problem is that not all drivers set csum_data to 0xffff for packets with zero UDP checksum, so the code in sys/contrib/ipfilter/netinet/ip_fil_freebsd.c should check for zero UDP checksums first.
The attached patch solves the issue.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
See attached patch.
